What are the key match facts for Barcelona v Getafe?

Barcelona have started the season brightly, as have Jose Bordalás’ side, who are already showing their trademark grit and efficiency.

• Getafe have won three out of their four matches despite averaging just 37% possession.

• Barcelona are unbeaten in La Liga with three wins and a draw, including a 6-0 rout against Valencia last time out.

• The last seven meetings between these sides have produced just eight goals, with three ending in 0-0 stalemates.

🔵 Barca Ruthless in Front of Goal

Barcelona have made a confident start to the season, recording three wins and a draw in the league, alongside their midweek victory at St James’ Park.

In all likelihood, their draw with Rayo Vallecano represented a temporary blip, although that’s not to say that they played any better than the 1-1 scoreline would suggest; in fact, they were bettered for expected goals and shots by their opponents, and that’s despite Barcelona’s goal coming from a penalty.

Nonetheless, Hansi Flick’s men were able to bounce back in some style, thrashing Valencia 6-0 in their last La Liga outing. They created over 4 xG from 24 shots, 10 of which were on target.

This will be a very different kind of test, and it will be interesting to see how Barca cope against, arguably, Spain’s most defensive top-flight outfit.

🔴 Pragmatism and Structure Propel Getafe to Fast Start

Getafe have been the epitome of efficiency so far this season, having won three out of four matches, all while averaging no more than 37% of the ball - the 2nd least of any side in La Liga.

That’s pretty typical of José Bordalás, a coach with a long track record of winding up Barcelona managers. Former boss Quique Setién once fumed, “This isn’t football. It’s something else, and it makes my blood boil,” while Xavi couldn’t hide his frustration, remarking, “Normal people don’t want to watch football like that.”

To paint a fuller picture, last season Getafe completed the fewest passes of any team, but the second-most fouls. After four games played this time round, they rank 2nd last and 3rd with respect to these metrics. 

Their matches this season have produced just 6.4 expected goals, also the least in the league, and only Athletic Club have shipped fewer xGA than Getafe (2.8).

📊 How Do Barcelona v Getafe Compare?

As mentioned above, Getafe have excelled in frustrating a variety of Barcelona managers over the years, and this has translated into some pretty respectable results given the calibre of their opponents.

Barcelona have managed two wins across the last five showings, with Getafe managing to nail down draws in the remaining three. Two of those ended goalless, a scoreline which has prevailed in three of the last seven showings. Across that same stretch, this fixture has produced only eight goals in total - an average of just 1.14 per game.
